    Help Short & Quick Translation Request Thread [Thread for members with little/no JP/C/K knowledge. OP for

    Re: Short & Quick Translation Request Thread (Thread for members with little/no JP knowledge. OP for instruction.) Wish I can help but the text is too tiny for me to see (even with my glasses on). Somebody else might be able to read it?

    Help Wanted Manga Cover

    It just really depends on the intended size of your manga. But mostly, if you want the cover to go from back to front, you use double the size of your manga dimensions with a few allowances (to calculate in the spine). THAT'S, if you plan on doing a hardcover one. As for digital, just choose...

    Discussion Shoujo/Josei Mangaka

    SHOUJO ARTISTS: Arina Tanemura - her art is pretty. Have you even seen the details in her drawings? Not A-grade but dang sun so nice. Her stories are meh to me. Matsuri Hino - again, art is totes amazing. Much better than Tanemura's. Some of her works are good, like MeruPuri and other oneshots...

    Discussion Shoujo vs Josei

    I honestly prefer josei even though I grew up reading so much shoujo (Arina Tanemura, Youko Maki, Matsuri Hino) because shoujo's too... flowery for me nowadays. I mean, I like flowery stories and all that but it's so cliche nowadays. Love triangles, the girl's insecurity, misunderstandings. I...

    Discussion What Light Novels are You Reading, What is Next on Your List

    If you count translating as reading, well yes, I'm actually reading the Kotenbu series right now. I also bought the Biblia Koshodou no Jiken Techou light novels but have only read like a few lines into it. A friend suggested I read Baccano! and Vamp. I've read the Hakushaku to Yousei ones like...

    Help Short & Quick Translation Request Thread [Thread for members with little/no JP/C/K knowledge. OP for

    Re: Short & Quick Translation Request Thread (Thread for members with little/no JP knowledge. OP for instruction.) Had a go at it. Gundam Build Fighters, no matter how popular or how much demand there is for it, there's no way we can produce a new season. Besides, even if we had time for it...

    Discussion What BL Are You Reading/Watching?!

    I'm actually reading and translating Seito Kaichou ni Chuukoku since I can't wait for the next release plus that art is amazing. If waiting for the next release is considered "reading" as well, I'm waiting for Sekaiichi Hatsukoi, Crimson Spell, Viewfinder, Junjou Romantica, and this one other...

    Discussion How long did it take you to learn Japanese and start reading RAW manga?

    It all depends on how fast you learn and retain all the information you study. For me, it took about half a year? 6 months or so, not sure. But even before I decided to continue my studying (I stopped for a few years), I already memorized the kanas so the only thing left was memorizing some...

    Info The Deviant Art Thread

    Ahahaha... I haven't even been uploading much. Heck, haven't been drawing much but hey, let's just link it either way. http://tsunderenyan.deviantart.com/ I had another account before this with all my crappy drawings but I deleted it so that nobody could ever see the horrible drawings I've...

    Discussion Smut/Adult Content in Shoujo/Josei Series

    It just depends tbh. Most josei titles have smut in them, since I mean it's targeted for the older women out there. I avoid josei when I'm not in the mood for smut and vice versa for shoujo if I want some smut. Sometimes I like having the smut but all in all, it just really depends on how the...
